Poloji! Mi wil sta dis taym kol yu Bik Beya (sapos "graut" min "bik") .
Appologies! I'll from now on call you Big Bear (assuming "graut" means "big") .
"Great" at "big" anku hâi namai naito ramok. I think "great" is a better translation than "big".
Ama te ed kilai sor dai, lino Berulan pas bâihi at ad anku? Ama pon ti erai irhe? Perhaps because Bearlandic is similar to your native language? Or at least those two words?

Sajiwan swel in af no jenda difa. Swifa pashm singgyula u "im" an plurl u "dem".
Sajiwan also doesn't have gender differences. Third person singular is "im" and plural is "dem".
